WASHINGTON • North Korea does not have the ability to strike the US with “any degree of accuracy” and while its missiles have the range, they do not have missile guidance capability needed, said the vice-chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Paul Selva, yesterday.
“I… am not sanguine that the test on the 4th of July demonstrates that they have the capacity to strike the United States with any degree of accuracy or reasonable confidence or success, ” Gen Selva said while appearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee.
